#42 - The Armero Tragedy

In this episode of *LaVoz Podcast*, we remember the 1985 Armero tragedy — a volcanic eruption that killed over 25,000 people in Colombia. But beyond the natural disaster, we uncover a darker truth: hundreds of children were illegally adopted, separated from their families in the chaos, while the government looked the other way. We also highlight the work of the Armando Armero Foundation in the ongoing fight for truth and reunification.The *Armando Armero Foundation* was created to honor the victims of the Armero tragedy and support families affected by the disaster. They work to document the illegal adoptions, collect DNA samples, and help reunite children with their biological families.
